William and Elizabeth RodgersMcCreery Memorial Fund

The McCreery Fund was established in 1938 by the will of Emilie McCreery in honor of her parents. The McCreery Fund joined the Buhl family of funds in 1955. Grants are available to nonprofits that focus on furthering musical education and music awareness for young people in the Pittsburgh region. Application processes are the same as to the Buhl Foundation.

Did you know?

The Buhl Foundation is endowed with proceeds from a turn-of-the-century department store business, Boggs & Buhl. Henry Buhl, Jr. and his partner, Russell Boggs, borrowed money to open the first store on the Northside of Pittsburgh in 1869. The partners marketed to the "carriage trade" and that first location grew into a wonderfully successful department store enterprise.
